An insensitive post about domestic violence was deleted from a Saskatchewan Liberal candidate’s Facebook wall on Wednesday after the Conservative party’s campaign director tweeted about it.

Not long after the Chicago Blackhawks defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning in the Stanley Cup final Monday evening, Ray Fox — the Liberal candidate in Battlefords–Lloydminster, a riding held by Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz — posted a meme showing a white woman with a black eye, her white husband, and their black child.

On top of the meme, Fox, a four-term North Battleford city councillor and — somewhat ironically — according to his Liberal Party bio the winner of 2010 Premier’s Award for Excellence in the Public Service for his involvement with the Battlefords Domestic Violence Treatment Option Court, wrote: “my sincere condolences to all the Tampa Bay Fans,,,,,,,,,,,I think I might know how your feeling…..”

It didn’t take long for the tone-deaf joke, which 15 of Fox’s Facebook friends had liked as of Wednesday morning, to be picked up by the Conservative party.

Last May, a provincial Liberal candidate in Ontario named Jack Uppal got a lot of negative press for a sexist Facebook post that was subsequently deleted.

And the federal Conservatives themselves were embarrassed in early May when CBC revealed their candidate in Papineau, Justin Trudeau’s riding, was only running as a gag and poking fun at the party on Facebook throughout the process.

All of which suggests there probably will be a lot more such moments before October 19.
